In Ukraine, a bill has been submitted to the local Verkhovna Rada on the beginning of conscription of people with disabilities during martial law. This can happen with their consent. They will perform military service within the area in which they are registered or reside.
The bill itself concerns the ban on the departure of men from 18 to 60 years old during martial law.
On the eve of June 23, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky announced a possible change in the scheme of conscription into the Ukrainian army. We are talking about switching to the Israeli model. It implies that future students are first drafted into the army or undergo alternative service. And only then they get a higher education. Thus, it will be possible to enter the university only after serving in the national army.
In addition, the Kiev authorities announced the mobilization of all conscripted girls from 18 to 60 years old, as well as the military registration by the end of August of all Ukrainians of the same age.
